I have been pretty strict Paleo for a month. No gluten, no dairy, no legumes, hardly any fruit or nuts. I have had a few sweet potatoes, some dark chocolate and a few NorCal Margaritas but pretty much sticking to the plan. I train Muay Thai but have taken the last 2 weeks off due to an achilles injury. In the mean time I have been cycling and doing a lot of upper body weights/strength training. The first couple of weeks adjusting to the diet were tough but I haven't had cravings for bread or cereal or other high carb foods over the last week and my strength and energy is starting to surpass how I felt a month ago. I am going to try to keep a log of my daily food and any training. Since I am not concerned with portions I will be general.
Current stats: 34 years old, 5'10" 180lbs (probably 15-17% body fat). I weighed in at 188 30 days ago.
Today's log:
Breakfast-handful of raspberries and about 4 slices of Columbus peppered turkey
Lunch- baked chicken breast and broccoli
Dinner-2 chicken and apple sausage, roasted brussel sprout and sweet potato with bacon
Snack-rasberries and home made beef jerky
Beverages-water and green tea
Exercise: cycling and weights concentrating on shoulder muscles
